open house make n takes

I promised to post the pictures of the make n takes from my open house a few weeks ago. Here they are! Sorry if you missed the open house but make sure to talk to me about how I can show you and your friends your very own stampin' demonstrations and make n takes!



Here's an easy card using the new Friends Never Fade set. I love how this set co-ordinates perfectly with the greenhouse gala dsp. The new marina mist colour from the subtles family is so soothing.



This is my favourite of the bunch. A new in-colour: Concord Crush. It's a rich, deep purple. I used the lattice die for the big shot after stamping en francais background stamp on the whisper white paper.
The main image is from the new Artistic Etchings stamp set.

This was the hostess evening extra make n take. It uses the new in colour pear pizzazz for the main card base. Then the pink is called "blushing bride". It is a great colour. Not as bright as pretty in pink but not as soft as pink pirouette. I used the flight of the butterfly stamp set using blushing bride ink and regal rose ink and adhered it to the designer label hodgepodge hardware. Cool huh?



Here's a little treat cover using the new daffodil delight colour from the brights family and the greenhouse gala dsp. The sentiment is from the perfect punches set.

If you wonder how I came up with the colour combinations, I sometimes used the new colour coach which is a great tool. It is new and improved and allows you to hold different chips of colour together to see how it looks. It also gives you suggested color combos on the back.

There are so many new and wonderful things with the new catalogue release. Make sure you take a look at it.
